Like I said before, "shacked up" posing for a typical politian scandal...This happen's to often, I'm bored...what was that joke about lawyer's, should be applied to politician's as well...useless meat...

The authorities said they pinged him (thru a cell tower) in Atlanta... now they say he is in the Appalachain Trail.

Only problem is... If he was coming from SC to the Appalachain Trail, he would not go through Atlanta. Atlanta is on the other side (SW)of the Appalachain Trail... he would not have any reason to be in Atlanta. I think they are lying to us!

Of course they are lying! He has four sons and his wife, nor other politicians had NO IDEA where he was for three days, including FATHERS DAY! Something is very wrong here...

One of South Carolina's top prosecutors died suddenly over the weekend during a trip to North Carolina of unknown causes.

Attorney General Henry McMaster said that Jennifer Evans died "unexpectedly" during a family trip to the mountains. He said he was "devastated" by the sad news.

"If you wanted a class on some area of criminal law, you would go to Jennifer," McMaster told The State newspaper. "There was nothing too big, too hard for her. I never heard her say anything was too difficult or it would take a lot of work. That wasn't in her vocabulary."

Evans, who was only 41 years old, was the head of McMaster's criminal section and the chief prosecutor for the state grand jury.

She had prosecuted a number of key criminal cases for McMaster's office that put drug dealers, dog fighters, and con men behind bars.

Most recently, Evans successfully convicted former HomeGold chairman Jack Sterling, who swindled more than 12,000 people out of an estimated $278 million.

The Governor went about this in a way that is just strange. He did not leave clear lines of authority, and there always risks (especially these days) in not having some kind of security with him, if for no other reason than to protect against the possibilities of blackmail, or just to guard against the crazies out there.

Getting away from the responsibilities of high office, especially after a tough legislative session that has already recessed, makes a great deal of sense.

But is he really hiking on the Trail, and didn't tell his wife that he was going? And, if he is "writing something" as his wife said, isn't that easier to do with, erm, electricity and a laptop? And his wife said he wanted to get away from the kids, OK, sure, that is normal, but not over Father's day. Common. That's just mean.

The Republican governor left town on Thursday, his spokesman Joel Sawyer said, with plans to hike the trail, which passes through 14 states but not South Carolina. Sawyer said he didn't know where exactly Sanford was along the 2,200-mile route and declined to discuss if anyone was hiking with him. The governor was expected back later this week.

Monday, May 18, 2009Rick Perry: I don't want to secede, but others might

In a new interview with the LA Times, Rick Perry's shrewd balancing act on secession continues. On one hand, he can't seriously advocate secession without provoking laughter and some concern about his allegiance to the United States (which are united, by the way). On the other hand, the conservative, independence behind the idea fits so cleanly into a primary campaign against Kay Bailey Hutchison. So what's the Governor to do? Well.... write op-eds for the Austin American-Statesman, claiming he'll never advocate secession, while telling the LA Times, others might. [link to www.gop12.com]
